Thanks, that's OK. It is hard when you have two versions of the game on the go (never enough hours!)  I am doing things a bit differently for Rhys in terms of his build.  I found having him as a Strider for a while and then switching to Sorcerer has made him a bit more balanced between strength and magick (Thomas became too strength heavy, hence why he is going to be a sorcerer/mage for a little while).   I am going to be following the link you gave about stats growth.  I can't wait till new game though so I can tweak Rhys a bit though. 

 

 

The DAI forums can be a bit ... I can't think of the word!  I do venture there occasionally, but sometimes I do back away!  I always try to be civil, even when I may not agree with things, but courtesy goes a long way (I sound so old!)   I cannot believe the Cullen thread is over a 1000 pages long!  I can't keep up with it anymore!

 

And I'm sorry to hear about problems with your DD:DA game.  I really hope the problem is resolved soon.  The only time I can think an Arisen would walk slow is from being over encumbered or if he is debilitated with Torpor (which he shouldn't get if he is in Gran Soren :huh: )   I used Gideon the other day and he helped me defeat two Condemned Gorecyclops in BBI.  Unfortunately before that he disappeared after an encounter with a Fire Drake, so I apologise if he came back at first with 3 stars.  I did give him 5 stars later.

The DA threads are ridiculous, instead of people talking about things like the game itself and speculating on the characters they instead twist it into a psychoanalytical forum by over-analyzing every single aspect of information given to them. It's a BioWare game, not a David Lynch movie. It's Dragon Age Inquisition, not Mulholland Drive. And normally I get a kick out of these types of back-and-forth discussions however they are not discussions they're rapid one-sided debates fueled with ad hominem and personal attacks disguised as witty jokes. It's gotten so bad that I have 10 people from the forums on ignore because I can't be bothered to scroll through their tripe, their debator's tripe and any and all tripe that was multi-quoted to hell and back...and the trolls, my god they're unusually vicious and rabid I'd almost equate them to Sasuke Uchiha fans or adamant FF7 sucks trolls.

@newschmoo - Well, I do understand wanting to play around in the CC, by getting past Grigori, with Rhys and your PS3 Arisen. LOL! Poor toons....we never think they are "quite right", or we turn them into the ridiculous. On purpose. :lol:

Thomas may not have as high of base magick, but he really is a quick draw as a Sorcerer. It's funny; a lot of people I think shy away from making Sorcerers Scather/??(Challenger, Utilitarian, Mitigator). But the quicker they start casting, the more likely they will get some good casts off. So definitely don't under sell your lovely Thomas. ;) (not that you really would. heh!). He works great on pretty much any team I put him on. :)

@Aedan - I too have had some unexpected reactions to comments I have made, on DA:I. Tensions seem overly taut, and it is of the posters own makings. Ah well, whatever floats their boats. I have yet to put anyone on ignore, though I admit I have been tempted once or twice. In the end, I just walk away. At that point, the thread has usually headed down a path I wouldn't care to join in on, anyway. But you are always welcome here! :D The more the merrier.

I grabbed a couple snapshots yesterday, with team Ari/Castor. Had Zihark and Chase first, then switched to Thomas and Briana. Oh! And for only the second time ever, a Cursed Dragon failed to forge a single item on my Arisen (I had four pieces on her, that were not forged). I know I have been really lucky. I usually get all kinds of forging from CD's, so I was a bit in shock. Maybe since the Frostwyrm before it, had forged three items prior to the CD showing up, that game felt I "had enough". LOL!
Anyway....nothing very interesting in these shots, but everyone look's good. And remember, "It is better to look good, than to feel good.....and you know who you are." *smirk*

So last night I made a new xbox account and started a new game. Such fun being so low level!!! BUT -- when I tried to make my account "official" by joining XBL and entering and email address, it kept saying it couldn't connect to XBL. Then it got stuck on the "safe" question (What was your first pet, etc.). So annoying. Anyway... I once again created a "pretty boy" Arisen, try as I might not to do so (I even used face 40!). And then for my pawn, I studiously used face 44 AND he has facial hair, yet to me he still came out looking a bit pretty LOL Also... a bit like Thomas >.> I should've gone with a different hairstyle, but this just seemed to fit him. Oh well; he's stuck with it for about 40 more levels lol

 

Pics soon, although I was hoping to give them some decent looking armor by renting them with my other account, but that'll be impossible without bloody XBL!

 

Also have to defeat AD with Rohan/Seel and then get Dai/Arya to infinity, but that should happen pretty quickly cause that pair carve through BBI like butter.

@Curious - Hmmm...not sure why XBL is giving you troubles setting up another account. I did use my husbands info (and an email address for him), just in case they balked at the same person having more than one account. Not sure if it is really a problem or not, but I figured I would kill two birds....blah,blah,blah. He still needed an XBL account (there is a game he is considering, that has some online components), and I didn't want to risk any hassle with having two XBL accounts under my name. Again, it probably shouldn't matter, so long as it is attached to a different email, but....*shrug*

There is a bit of a hassle with having two accounts attached to one Facebook, every time I switch between accounts, I have to re-sign in to FB.

 

Other than that, just the occasional Xbox standard "This account needs to be more secure, blah blah blah, give us another e-mail address..." NO. I GAVE YOU TWO ALREADY.

 

Well, if you ever get XBL working, you know where we are, Curious :)

LOL...yup, with the FB bit. I have to do that too. My biggest gripe, is that my FB account, is attached to one of my really long email addresses. I hate "typing" with a controller. :P

And YES, YES, YES!! Crap on a ******, that is annoying as all hell. About every other time I log on with my FlattestFlea account, they ask me for yet another email address. The bastards have two already, plus my damn cell. Bugger off! I usually just "B" button out of it, then use the main Xbox button on my controller to log in. <_<

lol!!


**EDIT**
:huh: The sensors blocked cra_ckers?? (with out the underscore). But, they leave the "crap". M'kay. :lol:

I'll change it to the usual "Crap on toast" then. I swear, I am getting an image of Chevy Chase chatting up little Ruby in Christmas Vacation.

Griswold: "You shouldn't use that word."
Ruby: "Sorry. S_hitting rocks.

I have to say BioWare's way of syncing accounts to games and forums is a huge cluster**** waste of time. I just lost 50 minutes of my life logging into the original BW forum (Social.Bioware), made sure I had an EA/Origin ID all of that, registered my games and lo and behold nothing (as per usual) no DAO or DA2 icons or custom Warden character appearing, nothing that the site says has happened has happened. Meh this just isn't my week, or my century I need to get rid of my Suxbox and PC and start anew.

For the new forum, registering them alone, doesn't add them under your avatar, on this site. Use the following link, and follow step "L", to get DAO, DA2 and ME3 (if you have those registered already), to your profile. Those three games are the only ones that work on this site.

All right! Finally managed to get the account going on XBL! But now... for some reason... I'm unable to hire my new pawn :( I got him up to level 5. But when I go to my usual account and play as Rohan, my new account doesn't even show up in my list of friends (even though I am definitely friends with my new account).

 

Does a pawn have to be even higher than level 5 before s/he can be hired??

Ugh this whole escapade has been one headache after another I think I'm done, I mean I had 4 or 5 different windows open all of which were EA/Bioware things all to trace one game to one account which apparently is an impossible feat. Just a head's up I'm done with DD:DA for the foreseeable future (at least until I get a new controller), that game has been pissing me off beyond normal rationality. 

 

EDIT: Would anyone object to me posting some of my Warden's pictures on here?

UPDATE: My new Arisen, Kael, can hire Seel. But Rohan can't hire my new pawn, Kelly. My new account STILL does not show up under my old account's list of friends in the Rift.

 

*SCREAMS!!!!!!!!!!!!!*

 

I'm about to lose it lol

I may have taken a wild stab at your new GT and have already hired your pawn. We've got him filling in for Zi's Cursed King's Belt.

Ermahgerd... Look how well he's fitting in already! Classic crotch-and-ladder pose!! I'm so proud of him *sniffle*

 

:lol: Thanks for making me smile in the gym at that quip about my gamertag :lol: I only sent a FR to coldy b/c I couldn't remember of Shepenwepet was capitalized or not. Then I got bogged down with the whole "why can't I hire my own pawn" crap. That last about... oh, two hours. Then I got fed up with life in general and went to the gym.

 

Soon as we get to Gran Soren he's getting a makeover, FYI. Different hairstyle and facial hair. Also, is it just me or does he have tiny eyes. GRRRR I will NOT rush through the game just so I can enter the CC again! I will NOT!!!

 

Also while switching back and forth I once accidentally switched back to my Arya/Dai playthrough, and I was confused for a second, but then I was like, awww, my babies!! Mama missed you!!! Have to get those two sillies to infinity!

 

Btw, Seel is my magic boy, Arya is my warrior Amazon, and Kelly is going to be my jack of all trades. Going to switch classes every ten levels. What y'all think?

@Curious - I am trying to remember if there was some weird delay with my "coldwetn0se" friend request, to my FlattestFlea account. Can't remember. In the meantime though, you should be able to manually pull him up from the rift, using your new Gamertag in the search menu (inside the Rift).

@Shepen - That is a smashing new belt Zi has. Who wants some shrunken cat head, when you can have a full-size man's head. :)

@Aedan - I don't personally mind if you post pics of your Warden(s). Just keep them under "spoiler" tags, and I doubt think anyone will get bent out of shape....I don't think. *shrug* ;)

Sorry to read that you are done with DD:DA though. At least until you get a new controller.

Shouldn't be too long I just need to find a replacement on Amazon (once I acquire a gift card) and that's it...and the waiting of course...the dreaded waiting :( 

 

Anyway pics

Aedan Cousland & Daylen Amell

There is reason of course why I posted them here, I've been trying to recreate Aedan/Daylen as my Arisen with...mixed results.

Only did a quick jaunt in DD last night. Working out of the home office most this week, so not able to get away with goofing off. :P

Picked up Nicholas and our latest play-thing, Kelly. ;) Like I said, didn't do much, but we did spend some time down the well, and just outside of Cassardis.

Thank you guys for using Nicholas so often.  It makes him happy to be useful :)  And me too!  Glowing is good, yes?

 

I finally got 1/3 Griffins last night.  Those guys make me so mad.  I wish they would just fight instead of running away so much! *shakes fist at sky*

 

Here are a few ss from last night.  I'm still not as good at the action stuff as you guys, but I'm trying ;)

 

Spoiler

 

I wanted to switch up Nicholas' vocations later on, but I really like him as my healer/buffer guy.  We'll see ;)

@Kaidan Fan - This is definitely a good time to take advantage of switching up his vocations, while he is still under level 100. You gain the most stat increases before 100. I know I have posted this a few times, but just in case you missed it, here is the stats page: http://dragonsdogma....ki/Stat_Growths
Can be quite helpful. :)

Speaking of switching vocations, I am going to switching Castor around a lot, for a while. I am trying to DF a few things, and still hoping to the Sanguine Stalk. I will leave him as a Ranger while I DF Bitter's End, and (fingers cross), if I get a new shield from those lvl.2 weapons, I have been sitting on. I got Dragon's Bane DFed a few days ago....once I remembered to equip it to my Assassin. :pinched: Also have some armor to DF. Once that is taken care of, I will have Castor set as a Sorcerer for a number of levels.

'kay.....now I'm just rambling. :wacko:

I probably won't get a chance to play tonight, I just got home and remembered I had to download The Wolf Among Us, which with my stupid stone age internet will probably take the better part of the night. And then I will have to PLAY it, which from what I hear should take a lot less time than downloading it.

 

The next time I get on I shall gift a bunch of stuff to repay the fae-silver plates and phantom orbs. I'm post-daimon with both characters trying to get Moony (and Shimmery) Saurians to spawn in the Black Abbey. So far no luck.

 

If Castor doesn't have a sanguine stalk by the time I get on, I'll gift him a level 3 weapon. I still have Kelly, last I saw he was climbing on Poisoned Undeads.

 

And if anyone would like to gift Zi some level 2 armors, I'm trying to get a Dragonwing Circlet, as apparently my quest has glitched and can no longer be completed. (The target circle doesn't even show up, I have no idea which tablet I missed, only that it's not the one in the Dark Bishop room because I was sure to get that one, and that's it's not the final one. Or any of the ones that are in your face as you progress, like the one in the Fortress of Remembrance. Seriously, I had them all. I JUST WANT SOME WINGS ON MY EARS.)

lol No problemo, and does he still need phantom orbs and fae plates? I've still got tons.

 

It's so exciting to play a pawn again who comes back with "knowledge of an unfamiliar foe." Squee!

Question, how long typically does it take to transfer stuff between Zi and Shinon, or Castor and Chase? Seel gifted Kelly some stuff like two days ago and it still hasn't come through. But I got loads of awesome stuff from, I think, Castor, and I bet Coldy didn't rent Kelly before I did!

I had a lot of trouble at first gifting stuff between Shinon and Zihark, it wouldn't arrive for days, and when it finally did, it was a rock. That may have been due to me accidentally loading from the HD instead of the usb, which I have since stopped doing because I don't want to lose anything else.

 

I now get stuff pretty much as soon as I switch over. Just release Kelly, rest at the inn right after to update the servers, then quit. If your gear still doesn't show up, there's not much you can do but wait and curse Capcom's server fairies.

 

edit: there's an item Zi needs and I can't remember what it is. Perhaps an Idol of the All-Mother? Don't gift that until I check, though. Those puppies are rare.

Man, I'm pretty sure I did all that... released him and rested, etc. etc. I'm gonna be p!ssed if I lost all that stuff I sent him. It was good stuff... stuff I figured I could just trade back and forth between my pawns. Oh well.

I bookmarked that site. Thanks for the link :)  I will probably start switching him around soon as I finish getting all the fighter augments for my Arisen because that's when I plan on switching her up some too ;)
